Who can apply — read this part

Honest note from us: this posting has no LMIA approval attached on Job Bank. No LMIA means no visa sponsorship comes with this job. The good news: you can apply from outside Canada. This employer is flagged open to international applicants, and applying through Job Bank costs nothing. The job itself does not include a work permit — that part is on you or on the employer.

• Outside Canada with no Canadian status? Apply anyway — it is a real, live opening. But pair it with your own work-authorization plan (PR pathway, IEC/working holiday, open-permit routes), and ask the employer up front whether they would support a work permit for the right candidate. Some will, some won't.
• Already authorized to work in Canada (open work permit, PGWP, spousal permit, PR)? Even better — apply normally, this is a current opening.
• Job Bank's own rule for this posting: “Canadian citizens and permanent or temporary residents of Canada | other candidates, with or without a valid Canadian work permit”.

How to apply

Apply only through the official Job Bank posting: https://www.jobbank.gc.ca/jobsearch/jobposting/50012168 (posting 50012168). Read the requirements twice, send what they actually ask for, and nothing more.
